I've come across 'horizontal logistics', which seems to me logical enough --- as distinct from the usual concept of 'vertical' logistics (i.e. running from factory goods inward to goods outward) --- the logistics that work 'sideways' within the factory itself.

This is the only reference I've found to anything like it from an anglophone source...

Explanation:I'm not quite sure of the right way to translate this - but I can at least give an explanation.
This is a very "fashionable" way of speaking, especilly in the education field "competences transversales" means that the pupils are supposed to use what they have learnt in various subjects to do one synthesis assignment.

Here, it means that the person has to have knowledge in various fields in order to do the job properly.

Another hint (though not yet in the field of logistics):
\"Through Applications of Learning, students demonstrate and deepen their understanding of basic knowledge and skills. These applied learning skills cross academic disciplines and reinforce the important learning of the disciplines. The ability to use these skills will greatly influence students\' success in school, in the workplace and in the community.\"http://www.google.fr/search?q=cache:k_xeFdsNgR0C:www.isbe.st...
